tun: reserves space for network in skb
The tun driver allocates skb's to hold data from user and then passes the data into the network stack as received data. Most network devices allocate the receive skb with routines like dev_alloc_skb() that reserves additional space for use by network protocol stack but tun does not. Because of the lack of padding, when the packet is passed through bridge netfilter a new skb has to be allocated. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
